CEO and CMO kicked out co-founder because having a "24-year-old woman" in that position made them a "joke." The CMO also called her a whore in front of the CEO; when she complained, the CEO did nothing except say she was a "dramatic girl."

Mr. Mateen and Mr. Rad subjected Ms. Wolfe to a barrage of horrendously sexist, racist, and otherwise inappropriate comments, emails and text messages, including describing one person as a “liberal lying desperate slut” and others as “middle age Muslim pigs” and referring, for example, to “fucking” the wife of a prominent blogger, and a text depicting IAC Chairman Barry Diller as a penis. Although it is tempting to describe the conduct of Tinder’s senior executives as “frat-like,” it was in fact much worse- representing the worst of the misogynist, alpha-male stereotype too often associated with technology startups.

Ms. Wolfe finally broke down the night that Mr. Mateen called her a “whore” at a company event, and she offered to resign in consideration for modest severance and the vesting of her stock. Mr. Rad snidely rejected the offer and fired her.

So crazy
 
First that guy sounds like an egomaniac and desperate for all "Wins" and "Accomplishments". But also a couple key points to take away from this mostly obvious.
1. Don't sh*t where you eat.
2. Never Text, Email, and write things that are or could be interrupted as sexist, racist, homophobic, or any other type of outrageous comment. Especially when you work for such a large and public company.
3. Never let a relationship get you twisted. Is it ever worth it? Hell the dude worked for Tinder shouldn't it be easy for him to replace his "girlfriend"

Again all this would make sense. But reading his text he might need medical attention.
 
He's a complete idiot for dating his co-founder and being an emotional drama queen.

This seems to a trend with Silicon Valley guys... they seem to be extremely thirsty and get obsessed with the few rare girls in tech. Fucking pathetic.

This society's fucked. Too many beta pussies.

"Oh noes, he called her a slut for cheating on him..."

"This makes me sad, he called the guy she cheated with a Muslim pig. Why can't he do the appropriate thing, do his due diligence, and then call him by his name?"
